Brighton Girl Geek Dinner - Fishbowl

I was a little aprehensive about this event, and wasn't sure what to expect but I have to say it was immensely enjoyable and worked really well. I'm not sure we got an answer to the question but we went on some interesting journeys touching on whether we even like the phrase "girl geek", what is a geek (someone who bites the head of chickens), why more women aren't going into IT, what stops women going to conferences etc

Jane Dallaway: I want to make the world a kinder place because I believe a kinder world would be a fairer and more inclusive place. I am curious and kind. I have keen attention to detail, am great at organisation and planning, and love language. I was born in Hull but belong in Brighton. I spend my spare time singing with Soul of the City choir, reading, writing letters for 'The Silver Line' and for 'From Me to You', walking the dog, and taking photographs. I am the maintainer of brightonbloggers.com.
